Cooper Malamazian Sparks Indiana Hoosiers with First Home Run of the Season
Indiana infielder Cooper Malamazian showcased his burgeoning talent Tuesday night, hitting his first home run of the season during a commanding 15-3 victory over Bradley.
In a standout performance, Cooper Malamazian went 3-for-4 at the plate, driving in two runs and scoring two himself. His impressive batting average now stands at .357 after 14 at-bats this season. This initial home run marks a promising start for Malamazian, who is gaining attention as a top prospect in college baseball.
Malamazian, who was drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers straight out of high school, made the decision to forgo signing with the team in order to further hone his skills at Indiana University. His commitment to developing his game has begun to pay off, as he demonstrates the potential that led to his initial selection in the MLB draft.
